We are deeply saddened for the friends and families of all those people involved in the tragedies today. We are closely monitoring reports from local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. We want to assure all Floridians that we have well-rehearsed security programs in place at all of our facilities -- including our two nuclear power plant sites at Turkey Point and St. Lucie -- and we are exercising those plans at this time. We do not discuss details of our security measures.

Both St. Lucie and Turkey Point nuclear reactors are housed in reinforced concrete, steel-lined containment buildings built to withstand adverse weather such as hurricanes and floods, earthquakes and even a crashing airliner.
